MC5, essentially just Wayne Kramer, follow on from last year’s album – Heavy Lifting, with a live album; MC50 – 10 More.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds return with Live God, an album that captures the communal energy of the acclaimed Wild God Tour.
Portland’s Stetson wearing, hardworking, road warriors Jenny Don’t & The Spurs are currently touring New Zealand, bringing their honky-tonk heart and cowpunk energy to intimate venues across the country.
